Variant description:

The GBA1 NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C (NP_000148.2:p.(Leu483Pro)) missense variant has not previously been reported in somatic cancers (COSMIC). Experimental evidence: L444P-associated cells showed deficient glucocerebrosidase activity and absent protein, but complex-allele confounding prevents strong PS3 application. Based on available guidelines, this variant is considered to be Pathogenic.

Gene-level background from the recorded interpretation.

About GBA1

GBA1 encodes glucocerebrosidase, a lysosomal enzyme that breaks down glucosylceramide, an intermediate in glycolipid metabolism. Loss of this enzyme's activity causes Gaucher disease, a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by the accumulation of glucocerebrosides in cells. No direct role in cancer has been established for this gene.

LYFE Sciences is an AI system, and it can make mistakes. Criteria may be applied incorrectly, sources may be misread, and a confident-looking classification can still be wrong. Double-check every criterion and its underlying evidence before relying on any call.

Met Not met Not assessed Not applicable

Under generic ACMG/AMP rules because the listed GBA1 VCEP has no released criteria, PS1 is met at strong strength for the established same amino-acid change Leu483Pro/L444P; PM1, PM5, and PP2 remain not assessed for missing criterion-specific evidence, while BP1 is not met because the supplied literature documents multiple disease-associated GBA1 missense alleles.

Functional evidence supports a damaging effect for p.Leu483Pro/L444P, but complex-allele confounding and incomplete assay characterization limit PS3 to supporting strength; no BS3 evidence is available.

PS4 is met because a variant-specific familial Parkinson disease case-control comparison reports 12/144 cases versus 0/100 controls; the continuity-corrected OR is 18.96 with a 95% CI of 1.11-324.11, satisfying OR >5.0 with a confidence interval excluding 1.0.

PP4 is not assessed because patient-level phenotype and family-history specificity are insufficient.

PP5 and BP6 are not met because the exact-variant ClinVar record has no expert-panel classification, and BP5 is not assessed because no alternate molecular basis is documented.

PS1 StrongACMG_2015Met: the exact Leu-to-Pro substitution is an established Gaucher disease mutation in multiple reports, with SpliceAI maximum delta 0.002 indicating no significant splice impact. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C produces NP_000148.2:p.(Leu483Pro), also reported as mature-protein p.L444P because of the 39-residue numbering offset. Multiple disease-focused publications identify p.L444P/Leu-444-to-Pro as an established Gaucher disease mutation, including affected individuals and families, establishing the same amino-acid change as pathogenic independently of nucleotide representation. The evidence is protein-level and SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact (maximum delta 0.002), so the PS1 splicing caveat does not preclude application.

Rule
Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change. ... Caveat: Beware of changes that impact splicing rather than at the amino acid/protein level.
Evidence considered
  • The queried variant is NP_000148.2:p.(Leu483Pro), equivalent to the mature-protein notation p.L444P used in the literature.
  • PMID:8929950, abstract and Results: the reported complex allele included L444P and occurred in a fetus with severe perinatal type 2 Gaucher disease.
  • PMID:24126159, Results/Table 3: p.L444P was the most frequent mutation in the familial Parkinson disease cohort, occurring in 12 of 144 index patients (8.3%).
  • PMID:1972019, Results: Leu-444 (CTG) to Pro (CCG) was identified in a type 2 Gaucher disease patient.
  • PMID:1899336, Introduction/Results: the Leu-444-Pro-444 allele was reported in multiple Gaucher disease patients, including homozygous type 3 disease.
  • SpliceAI maximum delta score is 0.002 for NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C.

PS3 SupportingACMG_2015Met at supporting strength: L444P-associated cells showed deficient glucocerebrosidase activity and absent protein, but complex-allele confounding prevents strong PS3 application. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PS3 is met at supporting strength. The queried variant NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C (p.Leu483Pro) is the legacy GBA1 L444P variant. A case report of a fetus with a complex allele containing L444P, A456P, and V460V found no detectable glucocerebrosidase activity and no detectable glucocerebrosidase cross-reactive material despite RNA being present (PMID:8929950); because the allele contains additional variants, the result cannot be attributed exclusively to L444P. An older expression study identified the same Leu-444-to-Pro substitution and found normal transcript expression but too little mutant protein for complete enzymatic characterization, with rapid protein destruction inferred (PMID:1972019). A separate patient-cell study reported markedly reduced beta-glucosidase activity in affected cell lines carrying the variant, but did not perform a variant-specific functional assay (PMID:1899336). These concordant loss-of-function observations support a damaging effect, but the complex allele, limited assay quantitation, and lack of a validated/reproducible clinical-laboratory assay prevent strong-level application.

Rule
Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies supportive of a damaging effect on the gene or gene product. ... Functional studies that have been validated and shown to be reproducible and robust in a clinical diagnostic laboratory setting are considered the most well-established.
Evidence considered
  • PMID:8929950, Abstract; Results, Mutation analysis; Enzyme activity; Western analysis: the complex allele included L444P, A456P, and V460V; affected-fetus amniocyte extracts had no detectable glucocerebrosidase activity or cross-reactive material while glucocerebrosidase RNA was present.
  • PMID:1972019, Results and Discussion: isolated Leu-444-to-Pro mutant cDNA was expressed in NIH-3T3 cells; normal transcript expression was observed, but too little mutant enzyme protein was recovered for complete enzymatic characterization and rapid destruction was inferred.
  • PMID:1899336, Introduction and Results/Table 1: the Leu-444-to-Pro variant was identified in Gaucher disease cell lines with reported beta-glucosidase activity of 4-12% of normal, but no variant-specific functional assay was performed.
Still missing
  • A quantitative, variant-isolated glucocerebrosidase activity assay with appropriate wild-type and disease-control comparators is not available.
  • The strongest reported fetal result derives from a complex allele containing L444P, A456P, and V460V, so the effect of L444P alone is not fully resolved.
  • No validated, reproducible clinical diagnostic laboratory functional assay was identified.

PS4 StrongACMG_2015Met: p.L444P occurred in 12/144 cases versus 0/100 controls, with continuity-corrected OR 18.96 (95% CI 1.11-324.11), exceeding the >5.0 threshold and excluding 1. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PS4 is met under the ACMG/AMP case-control definition. PMID:24126159 reports the exact variant as mature-protein p.L444P, corresponding to NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C / p.(Leu483Pro), in 12 of 144 familial Parkinson disease index patients (8.3%) and 0 of 100 unrelated controls; the paper reports p=0.002. I calculated the odds ratio from these counts using a Haldane-Anscombe 0.5 continuity correction for the zero control cell: OR=18.96, 95% CI 1.11-324.11. The governing threshold is >5.0 and the confidence interval excludes 1.0: 18.96 > 5.0? yes; 1.11-324.11 includes 1.0? no. The literature_pass packet's ai_classified_papers contains no paper classified as PS4, but the full-text extraction for PMID:24126159 independently verifies the variant-specific case-control counts.

Rule
The prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared to the prevalence in controls. ... Note 1: Relative risk (RR) or odds ratio (OR), as obtained from case-control studies, is >5.0 and the confidence interval around the estimate of RR or OR does not include 1.0.
Evidence considered
  • Clinicogenetic study of GBA mutations in patients with familial Parkinson's disease, Results/Table 3: mature-protein p.L444P (the queried p.(Leu483Pro)) occurred in 12/144 familial Parkinson disease index patients (8.3%) and 0/100 unrelated controls; reported p=0.002.
  • Computed from the reported counts with a Haldane-Anscombe 0.5 continuity correction for the zero control cell: OR=(12.5 x 100.5)/(132.5 x 0.5)=18.96; 95% CI=1.11-324.11.
  • Explicit threshold check: OR 18.96 > 5.0? yes; 95% CI 1.11-324.11 includes 1.0? no.

PM3 ModerateACMG_2015Met: MSM61 carried L444P and 5958T on separate alleles, providing phase-resolved evidence of the queried variant in trans with another disease-associated GBA1 variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PM3 is met for the recessive Gaucher disease context. PMID:1899336 reports the queried L444P variant (equivalent to NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C, p.Leu483Pro) in patient MSM61 together with 5958T, explicitly stating that the two variants were on separate alleles. This is a phase-resolved observation of the queried variant in trans with another disease-associated GBA1 variant in an affected patient. No quantitative generic ClinGen SVI strength threshold for PM3 was supplied, so no strength sublevel is assigned.

Rule
For recessive disorders, detected in trans with a pathogenic variant
Evidence considered
  • Heterogeneity of mutations in the acid beta-glucosidase gene of Gaucher disease, Results/Table 1, pp. 17-19: patient MSM61 carried 6433C (Leu-444-Pro-444, equivalent to p.Leu483Pro) and 5958T on separate alleles.
  • The study used cloned GBA1 cDNA sequencing and sequence-specific oligonucleotide analysis of genomic DNA, providing the reported allele configuration in Gaucher disease patients.

PP3 ModerateACMG_2015Met, moderate: missense REVEL 0.858 exceeds the PP3 moderate threshold of >=0.773. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The variant is a missense substitution, NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C (p.Leu483Pro), so the applicable generic PP3/BP4 path is REVEL only; SpliceAI is not used for a missense variant, and BayesDel has no generic ACMG-strength calibration. REVEL is 0.858, meeting the supplied PP3 moderate threshold of >=0.773 but not the strong threshold of >=0.932. Therefore PP3 is met at moderate strength, based on the ClinGen SVI REVEL calibration of Pejaver et al. 2022 (PMID:36413997).

Rule
Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc.).
Evidence considered
  • Variant consequence: missense, NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C (NP_000148.2:p.(Leu483Pro)); therefore REVEL is the sole applicable computational path.
  • Local REVEL lookup reports a score of 0.858 for this variant.
  • ClinGen SVI REVEL calibration (Pejaver et al. 2022, Am J Hum Genet; PMID:36413997) supplies PP3 thresholds of >=0.644 supporting, >=0.773 moderate, and >=0.932 strong; 0.858 meets the moderate threshold.
  • SpliceAI max delta 0.002 and BayesDel 0.55942 were not used for PP3 because the governing path for a missense variant is REVEL only and BayesDel lacks generic ACMG-strength calibration.

BP2 SupportingACMG_2015Met: the reported complex allele placed L444P with A456P and V460V in cis in an affected fetus with severe type 2 Gaucher disease. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BP2 is met through the cis pathway. PMID:8929950 reports that the queried L444P variant (equivalent to NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C, p.Leu483Pro) was part of a known complex allele that also included A456P and V460V, establishing cis occurrence with another variant in the same allele. The report concerns an affected fetus with severe type 2 Gaucher disease and documents the complex allele by mutation analysis. No quantitative generic ClinGen SVI strength threshold for BP2 was supplied, so no strength sublevel is assigned.

Rule
Observed in trans with a pathogenic variant for a fully penetrant dominant gene/disorder or observed in cis with a pathogenic variant in any inheritance pattern.
Evidence considered
  • The clinical, molecular, and pathological characterisation of a family with two cases of lethal perinatal type 2 Gaucher disease, Abstract and Results: the known complex allele included L444P, A456P, and V460V.
  • Mutation analysis used cultured amniocyte DNA with NciI digestion and sequencing of a PCR product spanning exons 9-11; the fetus had severe perinatal type 2 Gaucher disease.

Reasoning

PM2 is not met under the supplied generic SVI threshold. The variant is present in both population datasets: gnomAD v2.1 grpmax FAF=0.00119554 and gnomAD v4.1 grpmax FAF=0.00019859. Both exceed the generic PM2 supporting cutoff of <=0.0001, so the allele is neither absent nor sufficiently rare for PM2.

PP5 is not met. The exact-variant ClinVar record has no expert-panel submission; its Pathogenic and Likely pathogenic assertions are from ordinary laboratory or other non-expert submissions, and the aggregate record is not an expert-panel classification.

BA1 ACMGNot met: gnomAD v2.1 grpmax FAF is 0.00119554, far below the >=0.05 BA1 threshold. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BA1 is not met. The governing generic stand-alone threshold is allele frequency >=0.05. The highest qualifying filtering allele-frequency measure is the gnomAD v2.1 grpmax FAF of 0.00119554 (0.119554%), based on 345/281386 total alleles; gnomAD v4.1 grpmax FAF is lower at 0.00019859 (0.019859%). Both are far below 0.05. The higher gnomAD v2.1 Ashkenazi Jewish point estimate of 0.0024505 is not used because the required measure is grpmax FAF rather than a popmax point estimate. The variant also has a documented pathogenic ClinVar consensus, but its frequency is far below BA1 and therefore does not create the high-frequency/pathogenicity conflict that would require withholding BA1 on that basis.

Rule
BA1: Allele frequency is above 5% in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes or Exome Aggregation Consortium. ... BA1 (stand-alone): >= 0.05 — ACMG/AMP 2015 stand-alone benign allele frequency (PMID:25741868)
Evidence considered

Sources
BS1 ACMGNot met: the highest filtering FAF is 0.00119554, below the 0.01 default, and no validated GBA1 maximum-credible-frequency threshold is available. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BS1 is not met on the available population evidence. The governing rule is that allele frequency must be greater than expected for the disorder; the supplied 0.01 value is only a generic default, not an automatic disease-specific conclusion. The required filtering allele frequencies are 0.00119554 in gnomAD v2.1 and 0.00019859 in gnomAD v4.1, both below 0.01. GBA1-associated Parkinson disease has reduced and late-onset penetrance, while Gaucher disease is recessive, so a disorder-specific maximum-credible-frequency calculation would require explicit prevalence, penetrance, and allelic-heterogeneity inputs; none is available here. No observed frequency exceeds the generic default or establishes BS1 under a validated GBA1-specific threshold.

Rule
BS1: Allele frequency is greater than expected for disorder. ... BS1 (strong): >= 0.01 — Generic SVI default; per-gene derivation preferred (Whiffin et al. 2017) (PMID:28518168)
Evidence considered
  • gnomAD v2.1: grpmax FAF=0.00119554; the highest observed Ashkenazi Jewish point estimate was 0.0024505, but the required BS1 measure is the filtering grpmax FAF.
  • gnomAD v4.1: grpmax FAF=0.00019859; the highest observed Middle Eastern point estimate was 0.00033036 from 2/6054 alleles, below the required 2000-observed-allele criterion for using a population frequency estimate as a robust BS1/BA1 measure.
  • Generic BS1 calibration supplied for this case: >=0.01 is the default, with per-gene derivation preferred under Whiffin et al. 2017 (PMID:28518168). The observed filtering FAF values are below that default, so a positive BS1 call is not established.
  • The case summary identifies the governing framework as generic ACMG/AMP because the listed GBA1 CSPEC has no released criteria; therefore no non-cancer or exome-only VCEP source selection applies.
Sources
BS2 ACMG_2015Not met: gnomAD reports zero homozygotes in v2.1 and v4.1, and heterozygous GBA1 Parkinson risk is late-onset and reduced penetrance. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BS2 is not met. For recessive GBA1-associated Gaucher disease, the qualifying observation would be a healthy adult homozygous for the variant with full penetrance expected at an early age; gnomAD v2.1 reports zero homozygotes among 281386 alleles and gnomAD v4.1 reports zero among 1612982 alleles. For heterozygous GBA1-associated Parkinson disease, the early-onset/full-penetrance requirement is not satisfied because this is a late-onset, reduced-penetrance risk context. No qualifying healthy-adult observation is documented in the supplied evidence.

Rule
Observed in a healthy adult individual for a recessive (homozygous), dominant (heterozygous), or X-linked (hemizygous) disorder, with full penetrance expected at an early age.
Evidence considered
  • gnomAD v2.1: total homozygotes=0 across 281386 alleles; the highest observed Ashkenazi Jewish subgroup also has homozygotes=0.
  • gnomAD v4.1: total homozygotes=0 across 1612982 alleles; the highest observed Middle Eastern subgroup also has homozygotes=0.
  • The case evidence identifies Gaucher disease as a recessive GBA1 context and GBA1-associated Parkinson disease as a late-onset risk context; neither supplies a qualifying healthy-adult BS2 observation.
Sources
BP1 ACMG_2015Not met: multiple established GBA1 missense disease alleles are documented, so the gene is not supported as primarily truncation-driven by the supplied evidence. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BP1 is applicable because the variant is missense, but the supplied GBA1 literature describes multiple disease-associated missense alleles, including Leu444Pro/L483P, and does not support a gene in which disease is caused primarily by truncating variants. The available evidence therefore contradicts the BP1 gene-level premise.

Rule
Missense variant in a gene for which primarily truncating variants are known to cause disease.
Evidence considered

BP4 ACMG_2015Not met: missense REVEL 0.858 is above the BP4 supporting threshold of <=0.29. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The variant is a missense substitution, so REVEL is the sole applicable generic BP4 path; SpliceAI is not used for a missense variant, and BayesDel has no generic ACMG-strength calibration. REVEL is 0.858, which is above the supplied BP4 supporting threshold of <=0.29 and therefore is not evidence for a benign computational effect. The result is not_met rather than not_applicable: missense variants are within BP4 scope, but this applicable REVEL result does not meet BP4.

Rule
Multiple lines of computational evidence suggest no impact on gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc)
Evidence considered
  • Variant consequence: missense, NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C (NP_000148.2:p.(Leu483Pro)); therefore REVEL is the sole applicable computational path.
  • Local REVEL lookup reports a score of 0.858 for this variant.
  • ClinGen SVI REVEL calibration (Pejaver et al. 2022, Am J Hum Genet; PMID:36413997) supplies BP4 thresholds of <=0.29 supporting, <=0.183 moderate, and <=0.016 strong; 0.858 meets none of them.
  • SpliceAI max delta 0.002 was not substituted for REVEL because the governing path for a missense variant is REVEL only; the gray-zone/non-benign REVEL result does not permit BP4 support from SpliceAI.

Reasoning

The available case evidence does not document a qualifying de novo event in an affected proband. A ClinVar submission records origin as de novo, but its significance is not provided, no condition is specified, and there is no documentation that both maternity and paternity were confirmed. Therefore PS2 cannot be assessed from this record.

PM1 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no authoritative GBA1 domain table, validated hotspot route, or region-specific benign-variation evidence establishes the PM1 requirement. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The GBA1 VCEP is listed without released criteria, and vcep_materials.json contains no authoritative domain table for GBA1. The available evidence reports no statistically significant hotspot for this variant and provides no validated GBA1 critical-domain or benign-variation dataset sufficient to establish the generic PM1 requirement. Therefore PM1 cannot be assessed from the supplied evidence.

Rule
Located in a mutational hot spot and/or critical and well-established functional domain (e.g. active site of an enzyme) without benign variation.
Evidence considered
  • The GBA1 VCEP specification is listed but has no released criteria; vcep_materials.json has domain_tables={}.
  • The hotspot source reports that this variant does not lie in a statistically significant hotspot.
  • No supplied source establishes that residue 483 lies in a generic ACMG critical functional domain without benign variation.
Still missing
  • A validated GBA1 critical-domain or mutational-hotspot definition with evidence that the region lacks benign variation is needed.
Sources
PM5 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no different pathogenic missense variant at residue 483 was identified for comparison with Leu483Pro. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The supplied PM5 candidate collection contains no same-residue comparator variants and no evidence establishing a different pathogenic missense substitution at residue 483. The literature reviewed for the exact Leu483Pro/L444P variant does not identify a distinct missense change at that residue. A reliable same-residue comparator search or documented comparator evidence is therefore required before PM5 can be assessed.

Rule
Novel missense change at an amino acid residue where a different missense change determined to be pathogenic has been seen before. ... Caveat: Beware of changes that impact splicing rather than at the amino acid/protein level.
Evidence considered
  • The PM5 candidate file reports zero same-residue candidates and does not establish classic PM5 semantics for this case.
  • The reviewed exact-variant publications describe L444P/Leu483Pro but do not report a different missense substitution at residue 483.
Still missing
  • A documented different missense variant at GBA1 residue 483 with established pathogenicity is needed.
Sources
PM6 ACMG_2015Not assessed: a ClinVar de novo label lacks an affected proband, clinical condition, and supporting parental-testing details. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The available evidence does not provide a documented affected proband with an assumed de novo variant and a defined parental-testing context. Although a ClinVar submission labels origin as de novo, its significance is not provided, no condition is specified, and no clinical or parental details support treating that label as a PM6 observation. Therefore PM6 cannot be assessed.

Rule
Assumed de novo, but without confirmation of paternity and maternity.
Evidence considered
  • ClinVar includes one submission with origin "de novo", but the significance is "not provided", the condition list is empty, and no parental or clinical documentation is supplied; this does not establish PM6.
Still missing
  • Affected proband-level clinical documentation is not available.
  • The basis for assuming de novo status is not available.
  • Parental genotypes and testing methodology are not available.

PP1 ACMG_2015Not assessed: affected siblings shared p.L444P, but available reports do not establish qualifying segregation in a definitively disease-causing context. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PMID:24126159 reports p.L444P, equivalent to p.(Leu483Pro), in two familial Parkinson disease families in which affected siblings carried the same mutation, including Family 28. However, the report does not provide sufficient family-level genotype/phenotype detail to establish the required qualifying segregation for this case, and the study characterizes GBA as a Parkinson disease risk factor rather than demonstrating a definitively disease-causing role for the familial Parkinson disease phenotype. PMID:8929950 describes two affected conceptuses with a complex allele but does not establish segregation. PP1 is therefore not assessed.

Rule
Co-segregation with disease in multiple affected family members in a gene definitively known to cause the disease. ... Note: May be used as stronger evidence with increasing segregation data.
Evidence considered
  • Li et al. 2014, Table 3 and Family 28 in Figure 2: p.L444P occurred in 12 of 144 familial Parkinson disease index patients, and the paper reports that affected siblings in two p.L444P families carried the same mutation; the available extract does not provide enough complete pedigree data for a qualifying PP1 assessment.
  • Tayebi et al. 1996, Abstract and Results: the L444P-containing RecNciI complex allele was reported in two affected conceptuses with severe perinatal Gaucher disease, but the report does not establish cosegregation across informative relatives.
Still missing
  • Complete pedigrees and individual genotype/phenotype data are not available.
  • The number of informative meioses and tested affected and unaffected relatives is not available.
  • A clearly defined disease phenotype for which GBA1 is definitively causal is not established in the segregation report.
Sources
PP2 ACMG_2015Not assessed: the case lacks gene-wide benign-missense-rate data and a complete GBA1 missense-mechanism assessment required by PP2. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The supplied evidence documents the queried allele and several pathogenic GBA1 missense alleles, but it does not provide a gene-wide benign-missense rate or a sufficiently comprehensive gene-level analysis showing that missense variants are a common disease mechanism under the generic PP2 definition. The criterion therefore cannot be assessed without those gene-level data.

Rule
Missense variant in a gene that has a low rate of benign missense variation and where missense variants are a common mechanism of disease.
Evidence considered
  • gnomAD v4.1 provides the allele frequency for this variant (AF 9.85752e-05) but not the gene-wide benign missense rate required for PP2.
  • PMID:1899336 describes a GBA mutation spectrum and multiple disease-associated missense variants, but does not establish the required gene-wide benign-missense-rate threshold.
Still missing
  • Gene-wide evidence for a low benign missense rate and common missense disease mechanism is needed.
Sources
PP4 ACMG_2015Not assessed: the available patient record lacks a phenotype or family-history description sufficiently specific for a single-genetic-etiology disease. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The PP4 rule requires the patient's phenotype or family history to be highly specific for a disease with a single genetic etiology. The available case evidence identifies the GBA1 variant but does not provide a sufficiently specific phenotype or family-history assessment for the patient being interpreted, so PP4 cannot be adjudicated.

Rule
Patient’s phenotype or family history is highly specific for a disease with a single genetic etiology.
Still missing
  • Patient-level phenotype and family-history details sufficient to assess specificity for a single genetic etiology.
BS3 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no study demonstrates normal GBA1 function or splicing for p.Leu483Pro; available reports instead show deficient activity or inconclusive complex-allele results. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No well-established functional study in the available evidence demonstrates that NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C (p.Leu483Pro) has no damaging effect on GBA1 protein function or splicing. The available studies instead report absent or markedly reduced glucocerebrosidase activity/protein, or are inconclusive because the variant was studied in a complex allele or yielded insufficient mutant protein. Therefore BS3 cannot be assessed.

Rule
Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies show no damaging effect on protein function or splicing.
Evidence considered
  • PMID:8929950 reports no detectable enzyme activity and no detectable cross-reactive material in the affected-fetus sample, with attribution limited by the L444P/A456P/V460V complex allele.
  • PMID:1972019 reports insufficient recovered mutant protein for complete enzymatic characterization rather than normal function.
  • PMID:1899336 reports deficient patient-cell beta-glucosidase activity and does not provide a variant-specific normal-function assay.
Still missing
  • A validated functional study showing normal protein function or splicing for the isolated variant is not available.
Sources
BS4 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no affected family members are documented as lacking the variant, so non-segregation cannot be evaluated. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The available evidence contains no documented affected relatives who lack the variant, no family-level non-segregation analysis, and no validated phenocopy assessment. The presence of unrelated affected cases or population controls does not establish lack of segregation in an affected family. Therefore BS4 cannot be assessed.

Rule
Lack of segregation in affected members of a family. ... Caveat: The presence of phenocopies for common phenotypes (i.e. cancer, epilepsy) can mimic lack of segregation among affected individuals.
Still missing
  • Family pedigree with affected relatives is not available.
  • Genotypes of affected relatives are not available.
  • Phenocopy and alternative pathogenic-variant assessment is not available.
BP5 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no documented patient-level alternate molecular basis is available for a case carrying this variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BP5 cannot be assessed from the available evidence. No case-level evidence was provided showing this variant in a patient with an alternate molecular basis for the disease, and no governing BP5-specific alternate-basis observation is documented for this case.

Rule
Variant found in a case with an alternate molecular basis for disease.
Still missing
  • A patient-level report linking the variant to disease while establishing an alternate molecular basis for that disease.

PVS1 N/ANot applicable: PVS1 requires a null variant (nonsense, frameshift, canonical splice, start-loss or stop-loss), and this is a missense variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PVS1 (ClinGen SVI PVS1 recommendations, PMC6185798, pvs1_generic_framework) applies only to null variant classes — nonsense, frameshift, canonical ±1/2 splice-consensus, translation-initiation-codon loss, and stop-loss variants — each expected to trigger nonsense-mediated decay or otherwise abolish normal protein function. NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C in GBA1 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_000148.2:p.(Leu483Pro). As a result, no null-variant mechanism (nonsense-mediated decay, truncation, or canonical splice disruption) is triggered by this variant class, so PVS1's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. No VCEP criteria specification covers PVS1 for GBA1, so the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 definition applies. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication.

PM4 N/ANot applicable: PM4 requires a protein-length change, and this is a missense variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PM4 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) applies to protein length changes: in-frame insertions/deletions in a non-repetitive region, or stop-loss variants that extend the protein past the reference stop codon. NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C in GBA1 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_000148.2:p.(Leu483Pro). As a result, no change in protein length occurs, so there is nothing for this criterion to evaluate, so PM4's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. No VCEP criteria specification covers PM4 for GBA1, so the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 definition applies.

NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C in GBA1 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_000148.2:p.(Leu483Pro). As a result, the variant does not alter protein length within a repeat region, so there is nothing for this criterion to evaluate, so BP3's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class.

BP7 N/ANot applicable: BP7 requires a synonymous variant, and this is a missense variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BP7 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) is defined for a synonymous (silent) variant for which splicing prediction algorithms predict no impact to the splice consensus sequence and the nucleotide is not highly conserved. NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C in GBA1 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_000148.2:p.(Leu483Pro). As a result, the encoded protein sequence is altered, so the criterion's silent-variant premise does not hold regardless of any splicing prediction, so BP7's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. No VCEP criteria specification covers BP7 for GBA1, so the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 definition applies. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication.

How the predictions were used

PP3 ModerateACMG_2015Met, moderate: missense REVEL 0.858 exceeds the PP3 moderate threshold of >=0.773. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The variant is a missense substitution, NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C (p.Leu483Pro), so the applicable generic PP3/BP4 path is REVEL only; SpliceAI is not used for a missense variant, and BayesDel has no generic ACMG-strength calibration. REVEL is 0.858, meeting the supplied PP3 moderate threshold of >=0.773 but not the strong threshold of >=0.932. Therefore PP3 is met at moderate strength, based on the ClinGen SVI REVEL calibration of Pejaver et al. 2022 (PMID:36413997).

Rule
Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc.).
Evidence considered
  • Variant consequence: missense, NM_000157.4:c.1448T>C (NP_000148.2:p.(Leu483Pro)); therefore REVEL is the sole applicable computational path.
  • Local REVEL lookup reports a score of 0.858 for this variant.
  • ClinGen SVI REVEL calibration (Pejaver et al. 2022, Am J Hum Genet; PMID:36413997) supplies PP3 thresholds of >=0.644 supporting, >=0.773 moderate, and >=0.932 strong; 0.858 meets the moderate threshold.
  • SpliceAI max delta 0.002 and BayesDel 0.55942 were not used for PP3 because the governing path for a missense variant is REVEL only and BayesDel lacks generic ACMG-strength calibration.

Reasoning

The variant is a missense substitution, so REVEL is the sole applicable generic BP4 path; SpliceAI is not used for a missense variant, and BayesDel has no generic ACMG-strength calibration. REVEL is 0.858, which is above the supplied BP4 supporting threshold of <=0.29 and therefore is not evidence for a benign computational effect. The result is not_met rather than not_applicable: missense variants are within BP4 scope, but this applicable REVEL result does not meet BP4.
